(NIV) Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
(NLT) Kind words are like honey—sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.

1 Thess 5:11 says:

(Message) So speak encouraging words to one another. Build up hope so you’ll all be together in this, no one left out, no one left behind.
(NCV) So encourage each other and give each other strength, just as you are doing now.

Over the past few months when I’ve been leading worship I’ve been challenging the team with a simple question: “How have you worshipped this week?”

I primarily asked them to (a) remember that everything we do should be for his glory, (b) recognise where God has moved in our lives recently, and (c) realise that sometimes our worship isn’t directed at God.
